THE DENDROCHRONOLOGICAL POTENTIAL OF TIMBERS FROM WITHOW GAP, SKIPSEA, HUMBERSIDE
Author(s): J Hillam
The tree-ring analysis of eight wood samples from a beaver dam is described. Oak, ash, and alder were identified, two of the ash samples possibly showing evidence of beaver activity. No crossmatching was obtained either within or between species, nor did any of the ring sequences produce absolute dates. This suggests that the site has poor potential for dendrochronological dating.
